Belgian Surrealists Infiltrate Plume #4

Hold the phone! Stop the presses! Put down that doughnut! The new issue of the literary annual Plume has arrived, with a list of contributors too diverse and distinguished to be believed.

Included in the issue are some translations I made, with Jean-Luc Garneau, of those inimitable oddballs, the Piqueray twins (Gabriel and Marcel). Belgian Surrealists of the midcentury, their work continues to defy all known aesthetic categories.
